Neatness Of Artiilerymen.

The aspect of troops of all arms of the
service is very different in battle from the
trim and neat parade appearance, but no
where Is this difference q marked as in
the artillery. 1t was always most inter-
esting to me to watch a battery going into
action. The artillerymen were very care
full at all times to be dressed strictly in
accordance with regulations, and when a
battery took position every cannonader
looked as II he had just prepared himself
for inspection. Nothing could be neater
and more uniform than their appearance.
But this did not last long. As the fire
began to get hot a jacket here and there
would be thrown off; next the collars
would go, and often the shirts. The men
were o bathed in perspiration, which
they would hastily brush off with their
powder blackened hands, leaving great
marks wherever they touched themselves.
When the men began to fall and were
carried to the rear by their comrades,
blood stains were added to the powder
marks, and at the close of the fight the
a~rtillerymen, so remarkable for their fine
appearance at its opening, presented the
most horrible spectacle that can be inn
agined. But they soon removed all trace
Of the fray, and by the next day were s

An interesting phenomenon has for
some time past been observed on the east
ern coast Of the Caspian sea. The Kara
boohas Is an estuary nearly separated
rom tne main body Of the sea by a bank
through which there IL an inlet. The
evaporation from this gulf Is 80 great
that a current continually sets In from
the Caspian, and as there Is no return
current the water Of the gulf becomes
more and saliferous, and a deposit
Of salt Is In course Of formation, The
natural result Of this would appear to b.
that in time this gulf will be cut OIL from

MASTER WORKMAN PowDERLY has
issued q circular TO the Knights OF
Labor in which he takes to task very
strongly b e'gambling spectators in
the nee sssaries of life, whom he styles
"a robbers OF the worst sort. Most OF
his language in this circular is very
pungent and expressive, and none will
dispute the justice of his criticisms
upon those who corner grain, meat,
coffee, etc., and compel consumers to
pay exhorbitant prices for these neces-
saries. He suggests that the consum-
ers shall boycott gambling in these
necessaries of life by refusing to pur-
chase or consume any article cornered
by gamblers. This style Of boycott lie
about the only m that in our opinion
can be absolutely justified, and If 1t
could be carried into general effect 1t
would make that class Of gambling
profitless to all concerned in 1t. The
abuse Of wealth really creates more
dissatisfaction among those who ar,
without q superabundance of filthy
lucre than does the mere possession of
q fortune, and certainly there can be
no more fragrant abuse Of the posses
session Of money than to use 1t in cor.
nering or gambling in the necessaries
of life. The law should be sufficiently
strong to severely punish such gam
blers. But unfortunately this Is not
NO. and while Mr.. Powderly's circular
is extremely interesting reading, we
do not see how 1t a accomplish much
good.-Ex. Z"

THE Z MADE.

The honorable secretary Of the inter-
ior has revoked the order Withdrawing
indemnity lands from settlement and
has directed the com missioner to
throw them all open to presumption
and homestead settlers. The fun will
now begin. In the case Of the North.
ern Pacific the order will place $751;
600 acres on the market and subject
the squatter occupation. Half OF the
above Is not surveyed and settlers
must squatif they desire to get any Of
1t. The unsurveyed lands, however,
are all west of the river and beyond all
existing settlements. There will be
little or no occupation In advance OF
the surveys. When surveyed the
railroad company can reach the
United States land Office 90 soon ~
any one and II armed wlthiegal selec-
tons, car select all of these lands, ex-
cept in the case of settlers already on
the land. These will be 90 few that
the railroad company will practically
get all they think they are entitled TO.
II they lose any, 1t will only be q few
thousand acres, taken by actual set
tiers whose settlements and improve
ments will more than compensate
them for the acreage they lose. East
of the Missouri river In Dakota the in
demnity lands have all been surveyed
and selected except a few townships.
The acreage surveyed and selected ap.
.proximates one million one hundred
thousand acres. As the Tribune un.
.derstands the decision OF the secretary
from the skeleton newspaper reports,
the selections made by the railroad
company are not legal and must be
cancelled. The company did not In
making their selections submit lists of
the lands lost 10 lieu of which these
indemnity lands were selected. To
perfect their lists this was necessary.
Having failed IL Ia now held that the
company are In default, and the selec-
ton, like other defective filing, il sub
ject to cancellation. We DO not un.
derstand that the company cannot
make new or amended selections. and
practically acquire anew most Of these
lands without contest. All that IL re-
qulred is the presentation Of the num-
bsu of the tracts lost within the forty
miles limits. Pending the additional
proceeding W. understand the secre-
tary 10 mean that . settler can acquire

clsIon and enter upon them. II the

whose faction favoring repeal of these taxes is
in q hopeless minority of it's own national party
s.Third-As to the tariff. The platform OF
the Roanoke convention in this respect Is ut VAR
lance with the record of the national Demo-
cratic party. 1t traverses the national platform
OF the party, the recommendations of its Presi-
dent and the propositions of its controlling fac
ton il Congress. The Roanoke platform de-
clares in favor of a revenue derived from tariff
on imports and in favor of repeal of the in
ternal revenue system; while the record of
the Democratic party of the country
consistently and unwaveringly shows that
the reverse is the Democratic doctrine. The
Democratic view is a reduction of import duties
10 virtual free trade, and the maintenance OF
the internal revenue system a means of COM
polling the adoption of that una merican policy;
and we arraign the Roanoke platform as mis-
leading and seeking to deceive the people of
Virginia upon a question vital TO their every in
terest and to the progress and power OF the
State.
1T remains to be seen, felow-citiZens, whether
gou will become the dupes of pretenses which
have made the authors of this platform the
laughing stock of the leading journals of their
own party. The Washington Post and the New
York World-two of the most influential Demo
cratic journals of America have declared bold
" and openly that the planks OF the Roanoke
platform upon the internal revenue and tariff
are Numerically opposed TO Democratic princi-
Dles; and all the West. North and East
from St Louis and Louisville to Boston and
Bangor the orthodox organs of the Democratic
party have united in deriding and denouncing
this platform and its trainers"

This Committee in London Again Actively
Engaged in Some Secret Movement.
Washington Special.
A writer in the Sunday Herald says the con-
federate-bond committee in London is again
very active in some movement. The
for it's energy are kept close secret II has
been matter of great surprise this side that
shrewd, clever capitalists, mostly wealthy
Israelites. should expend large sums of money
and time in prosecuting vigorously
what seems to be hopeless a scheme.
That these people believe there is
something in it is certain, but how they can
ever expect TO realize nything from the United
States is the astonishing feature. AS nearly
can be ascertained the committee controls. by
ownership or by proxies, bonds representing
600, 000. 900 in various kind of securities, issued
by the Confederate States and are making elah-
crate plans for realizing something upon them.
Even IL the Southern States willing they
could not pay a penny of these bonds under the
constitutional amendments. but the South is
having about all il can do to take care of its
present indebtedness without loading each State
up with $35, 900, 000 more. The committee says
it means to ask the United States to pay them,
but that Is nonsense of such n bald character
that 1t receives no other sentiment than derison.
AS the matter develops further, perhaps the
real object may appear.

constituting a committee of Western and South
ern tobacco men, called by appointment upon
the Commissioner of Agriculture this forenoon to
lay before him their grievances in connection
with the recent report of Statsncian J. r. Dodge
upon the acreage of tobacco planted this year, by
which it Is claimed the tobacco interests suffered
grievous loss. Ex-Congressman Willis, of
Louisville, addressed the Commissioner, setting
forth in general terms the claimed inaccuracies
of the report, consisting in an alleged erroneous
overestimate of the acreage. Commissioner
Colman replied, warmly eulogizing the Statisti-
clan, describing the great wsght given to his
publications by reason of their uniform accuracy
during q course of twenty years connection with
the work, and repudiating most earnestly and
vigorously any suspicion that improper influence
could attach to him. A mistake might have
been made in this instance-if so an investga-
ton would develop the fact-but should there
prove to have been one, he felt convinced it
would be found to be mistake of the head
alone.
